Title: Two become one!
Post by: RobinOfTheHood on May 12, 2009, 17:17:52

Last year, about August I think, I was given a greenhouse which was identical to the 8 x 6 I already had.

Well, I've eventually got round to sorting it....

Going to use this one for cukes and melons, and peppers/chillies.

16 x 6, not a bad size.  :)

My OH did that for me years ago!  He had already put up an 8 x 6 greenhouse (8 foot wide, rather than 6 foot wide - makes a huge difference).  In the storm of 1987 part of a tree came down in the next garden and lo and behold - there was its twin - in the garden at the end of our neighbour.  We paid him for a new greenhouse, dismantled the fence and his greenhouse, and built it in our garden at the end of ours.  But my OH, clever chap that he was, put an extra panel between the two - making it 8 x 14 - fantastic.

I agree, esp if trying to grow sweet potatoes and Water Melons...  ::)

I would have been tempted to leave the door on the back green house you could have had a hot end and a cooler end!!
